Pregnant as a partner

GordonsGirl · Feb 26, 2009

Just wanted to check in and say hello. I am now almost 16 weeks pregnant and things are going pretty well. I am losing weight and feeling icky, but since I started out overweight this has not been a concern. The baby is growing great and sucking its thumb and moving all over.

As a CF partner, this pregnancy seems to have brought out a new health in my husband. He talks about the far reaching future in ways he never used to. His father called for his birthday last week and almost choked up talking about how happy he is every time he talks to Gordon. Father in law said that every time he talks to Gordon he sounds so happy and so healthy lately. He noticed that Gordon didn't cough once during their phone conversation.

It's so wonderful to see the way this baby is just bringing so much joy into our lives already and giving us a future that we didn't know we could hope for.

I hope everyone else is doing well too!

Wow, that's great! I also find that has happened to me as well. I see myself having a full future with my children and I'm not very concerned that I won't be here for them. Of course it does cross my mind every once in awhile that something might happen to me, but I definitely see myself being there for their HS graduation and beyond. Children definitely bring out another part of you that you might not have shown before. Although my oldest is now 2 yrs old and I find myself enjoying playing games, playing sports outside, and overall that's helping my health. It makes me want to try harder to make sure I'm healthy for them.

Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!
